Welcome to Ms. Kitchen's math website.
Things I know to be true:
EVERYONE can learn math to the highest levels (some choose not to)
Mistakes are Valuable (that is when the brain is working the hardest)
Questions are REALLY important (so is explaining)
Math is about creativity and making sense (it can be expressed in many ways, not just with numbers)
Math is about connections and communicating (you will become bilingual)
Math class is about learning not performing (although sometimes performing is fun)
Depth is more important than speed (unless you are being chased by a bear)
Think like there is no box.
